FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common questions
about working with us.

How is The Solution Lab different from a traditional advisory firm?

The Solution Lab is founder-led, meaning you work directly with someone who has the track record. No handoff, learning curve, or costly layers of billable hours.

How are engagements structured?

Engagements are tailored to your firm's priorities and can be scoped out as retained, interim, or discrete project work. You get exactly the right resource for where your firm is today without the commitment of a full-time hire.

Can you work alongside our existing team?

Yes - and that's often the most effective model. The Solution Lab is designed to complement internal teams and outside advisors, filling gaps and providing senior oversight on work that falls outside of their bandwidth or area of expertise.

What does the onboarding process look like?

We start with a focused conversation to understand your firm's priorities, structure, and gaps. From there, engagements can be scoped out quickly with no lengthy procurement process or ramp-up period required.

What size firms do you work with?

We work with both new launches and mature institutions. There is scope to partner with any size firm - particularly in an environment that continues to bring new challenges and room for innovation.
